Might want to check the draft thread about oh...........page 1 where I have been comparing them ever since. Easily the best comp.
Every single year, people fall in love with the #1 pick. Ja is better.
The two times I watched Ja, I certainly liked what I saw. That being said every years draft brings a new set of outcomes, but for whatever reason the #2 pick hasn't panned out all that well in recent drafts. 2013 was the best in Oladipo, but guys like Bagley, Ball, Ingram, Russell, Parker, Gilchrist, our Derick Williams, Evan Turner, and Thabeet are the last 10 number 2 picks and all of them had better players picked after them except Oladipo as mentioned. Note Giannis was picked well after Oladipo but I wont count him since 14 teams passed on him.

Never go by history of picks not players. But saying Ja is better than Zion is ludicrous.

Well, after reading this, Im thinking the second pick in the draft is overdue to pan out.

Or we are overdue to get the 2nd pick and have them turn into a bum.

Honestly, I don't really know anything about Zion's game. He good on D?
His timing and anticipation are elite. It's incredible watching the guy time the perfect help block or do the same with a steal. Not to mention that no one is gonna back down Zion.

Yep. Love the occasional talk how he's not tall enough to guard big 4's. Ever heard the phrase low man wins? Try to get post position on him. Try to back him down.

this dude is nuts. Only things preventing him from being one of the GOATs is the market he plays in, and possible injuries.
I've seen the Barkley comparisons, the LeBron comparisons, the Blake Griffin comparisons...
I'm starting to see some Shaq in him now too. Unstoppable in the lane. Foul him if he gets the ball there and put him on the line.
He is incredible. I hope he stays healthy.
